I had a lot of fun during volunteering here. Nathan and Lilia are awesome. Always very kind and proactive. And I met many volunteers come from all over the world. Everyone is friendly and always help each other ! The only thing need to know is if you want to go somewhere in your day off, then you need to hitchhike. But here got many volunteers, so you can go together with other volunteers !!

The lodge is a special place - such a peaceful atmosphere and so many kind people! The area around Golden is beautiful and there are so many cool places to explore. The work involves helping with cleaning and/or reception, and is usually quite busy, especially in summer. But it was very rewarding to welcome guests from many different places. It is quite remote as many others have said so at times you can get a ride to town, or try hitchhiking! It is also nice to hang out around the lodge in your time off - relaxing in the hammock, playing card games, or talking to other volunteers.

I loved my stay at the lodge! Managers Lily and Nathan were incredibly kind, and I learned so much from Lily. I also had the chance to e-meet the owner, Jim, who was very nice as well. I wish I could have stayed longer. I went on a few hikes during my time here and was lucky enough to see the Northern Lights twice. Everyone I met, including the co-volunteers, guests, and staff, was absolutely lovely.

The place was beautiful! Everyone was super friendly and respectful. Unfortunately I had to leave earlier than expected but because I was extremely homesick. They were super understandable about it and even gave me a ride to the bus station so I could leave.

I enjoyed my time at the lodge, the work was fine & the scenery is very nice and the vibe is really peaceful. Nathan was a great and thoughtful manager that made sure I had a great time and was looked after. Only a few things let it down from being a 5 star review. During my stay there were several prolonged plumbing issues that were not addressed professionally on the property, I did not have proper access to a running tap. It is worth noting that there is not much to see nearby and there is no consistent transport, you will have to hitchhike from the HWY.

Nathan and Lilia were so kind and welcoming, always on hand to help with any issues and just really nice to chat with. The work was quite simple but could be demanding at times. The admin role definitely had more responsibilities and felt like more of a full on role. The accommodation could've been better as staying in a tent with a shared bathroom in the office wasn't always ideal. That being said, I made some good friends here and the location is beautiful! A great first stop for my year in Canada :)

The lodge is a special place to volunteer and one I'll always remember. Jim, Nathan and Lilia were welcoming, easygoing and supportive. The work was straightforward, and the working hours were upheld. There is a focus on making it a positive experience ✨️

I loved my time at the lodge so much. I think one of the best things was meeting all of the international travellers also volunteering there. I went on some great hikes in the area and saw some of the nicest views. On this topic I would want to make any future volunteers aware that these hikes are a drive away, not on the doorstep - but the managers at the time were open to dropping us off at local trail heads so this wasn't so much of a problem. I saw the Aurora twice while I was there and the milky way was so visible with the lack of light pollution in the area. A truly great experience!

Volunteering at the lodge was a fantastic experience. Jim is an incredible host, always making sure you feel welcome and comfortable. Nathan and Lilia the managers were supportive and easygoing. The work itself was straightforward which leaves plenty of time to relax and enjoy the surroundings. One of the highlights was the food. The volunteers each take turns to cook which really adds to the experience. The only drawback is that it is located quite far away from Golden so if you don't have a car you have to hitchhike or rely on other volunteers or managers for lifts.
